Trained musicians able to transcribe music make fewer erros in recognition of conventional melodies when the melodies are presented in the right ear, but show more right ear than left ear errors in the recognition of random note sequences. Other subjects, even though able to read music and play instruments, make more errors across all types of stimuli when stimuli are presented in the right ear. The ability to transcribe music, but not the ability to read music or to play instruments is associated with a sharp reduction in errors for stimuli presented in either ear. |
